I'm really excited about the update, so I'd like to ask how the kernel and networking is going. We'll finally be able to hack after this! One suggestion, though: add some new servers for us to try to hack. It'll reduce the risk of game servers being hacked.

Kernel is coming along. I will be created a new network soon which you can create new characters in which will be able to test out the game with a kernel before its fully rolled out to all in-game hosts.

New servers to hack is a good idea. I would need to create a reason to hack them though, or players won't both. There needs to be some sort of incentive. I will most likely see about creating missions around these servers to test out the hacking tools and how missions will be handled in-game.

A mission designer wrote down some great mission ideas for me recently, which will most likely become the initial test missions. I am also planning on having a tutorial of sorts, and the tutorial will have a bunch on in-game servers which the player can hack and show various techniques on hacking in-game.
